The Green Door Podcast: All things Tolkien

Thanks for joining us for another Second Breakfast. In this episode we explore the chapter 'The Old Forest and the Withywindle' from The Return of the Shadow, Volume Six of the History of Middle-Earth. We see the hobbits enter the Old Forest along with the first musical appearance of a certain Tom the Bomb! The fire, as usual, is crackling so do come in, pull up a chair, pour yourself a drink and isolate with us in the hobbit hole. Most importantly, stay safe!

In search of mushrooms! Seriously.... where are the mushrooms? Thanks for joining us for another Second Breakfast. In this episode we explore the chapter 'To Maggot's Farm and Buckland' from The Return of the Shadow exploring how the meeting with Farmer Maggot and his smaller yappier dog started out as well as a 'merry' meeting in Buckland! The fire is crackling so do come and isolate with us in the hobbit hole. Most importantly, stay safe!

A slight detour or maybe a shortcut to more information about that pesky magic ring! Once more our thanks for joining us for another Second Breakfast! In this episode we explore the chapter 'Of Gollum and the Ring' from The Return of the Shadow and witness how The Professor built on the already established character of Gollum and developed the backstory of the Ring. The fire is crackling so do come join us in the hobbit hole!

Please join ads and James as we discuss the Sun and the Moon. We saved several seats by the fire as we sit around Bag End and discuss heavenly bodies. Special thanks to beyond the guitar and Harry Murrell for the EXCELLENT intro and outro music!

We do hope you enjoy this special and unique episode celebrating how the Professor's storytelling continues to inspire and bring lifelong enjoyment to adults and children alike! They are most certainly books and characters that will pass down generations! XXX

A storm is brewing both outside the hobbit hole and in the pages of The Return of the Shadow! Thank you for joining us for Second Breakfast. In this third episode we explore the chapter 'From Hobbiton to the Woody End' and see who Bingo Bolger Baggins and his friends meet on the road. Pour yourself a hot beverage and come join us by the fire!

**WARNING** THIS POST CONTAINS BAD RAP MUSIC. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED This is NOT a regular episode of The Green Door Podcast. it is an older project created by James O'Flaherty and Rob Wade (of Talk Star Wars Podcast and Emotionally 14 and Crazy Train...check out his stuff on youtube) We thought it would be fun to embarrass ourselves and share here.

Come and Ramble on with Ads and James through Chapter 10 of The Silmarillion;Of The Sindar. Special thanks as always to Harry Murrell and Nathan Mills from Beyond the Guitar for the excellent outro and intro music! Be sure to like and subscribe to their Youtube channels!

Food Glorious Food.... Thanks for joining us for episode 2 of Second Breakfast! In this morning's episode we look at Volume VI of The History of Middle-Earth by Christopher Tolkien - The Return of the Shadow, and specifically the opening chapter - A Long-Expected Party. Sausages and mustard anyone?

The Dwarves of Tolkien's Legendarium are renowned for their exceptional craftsmanship and live up to the image of their creator-father, Aule. Norse myths are to Tolkien what Second Breakfast is to Breakfast. In this first episode of Maythology, we explore the legendary gifts the Dwarves of Nidavellir crafted for the Gods and Goddesses of Asgard. All this and more coming up right now!

So glad you've decided to join us for Second Breakfast! We are excited to introduce a new additional show under the umbrella of The Green Door where we explore Volume VI of The History of Middle-Earth by Christopher Tolkien - The Return of the Shadow. Do fill your plate and come join us by the fire!

thank you once again for joining us for episode 14 of the Green Door podcast. This episode was filled with technical difficulties and took a while to produce but we think it turned out exactly how it should have. 100 minutes of Tolkien goodness. Enjoy

We hope you enjoy this timely offering. Keep your feet, and happy wandering.

Join us in this 1 off Christmas special where we visit with many well-known Middle-earth friends at Brandy Hall. The recipe for this episode is simple. Two parts make believe, one part silliness and three parts Christmas cheer. We even wrote a Carol for you. Merry Christmas everyone.

We are back in Rivendell this week in order to welcome another very special ringbearer into our fellowship. Please find a seat by our fire and pack your pipe because this episode is as twisty and turny as the road to the last Homely House. In this show, May, Ads and James all agree to agree that Manwë is both terrific and terrible. We look into and assess Bilbo's payment for burglary services rendered. And we take the risk and look into a seeing stone... Special thanks to Jeff (& Sebastian) LaSala from Tor.com *Check out his Silmarillion Primer series!! Intro music: Concerning Hobbits Medley by Nathan Mills @beyondtheguitar on YouTube Outro music: Rohan Medely by Harry Murrell @HarryMurrell on YouTube

Thanks for stopping by the hobbit hole again this week for another installment of the The Green Door Podcast. Ads and James make for Weathertop this time and bring something special and exciting with them. They dive into Chapter 7; Of The Silmirals And The Unrest Of The Noldor. As always, they attack the material from a lay perspective and try to have some fun along the way. So please grab your favourite chair, sit back and enjoy. *Caution, There is some wildlife out and about...

Welcome to Bag End. Please enjoy the warmth of the 🔥. We have published this episode twice in hopes to solve a glitch with iTunes.

Ads and I take a long walk to the edge of the known world for this episode. We do our best to uncover some fun tidbits hidden within the pages of chapter 5: Of Eldamar and the Princes of Eladalië. Action figures and Amazon series speculation fill up the corners of our sea side conversation. Please leave us your thoughts and any feedback. Happy wandering Don't forget to check out our friend Matt: .https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzfrplbcuisb-dS7ifXBNvg

After many weeks, episode 8 is finally here. Thanks to everyone for your input, interactions and great attitudes as you waited to this long overdue offering from The Green Door Podcast. We talk about love but it isn't all roses and there is significant discord between the hosts in this one. All in good fun of course. We hope you enjoy it. *This episode marks the start of something new and a special listener will be the first inducted into an exclusive club... Special thanks to Harry Murrell ( YouTube channel of the same name) and Nathan Mills ( @Beyondtheguitar) for their amazing music.

Welcome Green Door Pod-ies to episode 7. We have gone on a little hike and found an open Glade to Camp amongst the pine trees for this episode. We'd love to have you sit by the bonfire with us and toast some marshmallows, maybe make yourself a s'more or two with a Canadian twist. The elves are awake and that gives us a lot to talk about. Apologies for the delay in release. N.B. this episode was recorded on April 1st.
